Through photography, French photographer Kevin Métallier escapes the monotony of everyday life, covering and capturing all corners of the globe.

Based in Biarritz – a seaside town in the South-West of France – Kevin is perfectly positioned to snap the best in local European skate, street and surf style. And with over 15 years in the photography game, he’s got a winning formula for getting the best out of his snaps. Rich in colour and contrast, take a look at some of his favourite shots below:
